Rendering problems on FreeBSD 5.4 with linux-mozilla-1.7.8_1 with adobe-times-iso8859-15 minsize 24 on 1600x1200, dpi=112 Window shot: http://people.freebsd.org/~garys/top.jpg * The "Text size" line slightly overlaps the "power to serve" line. * The "button bar" flops over "Based on BSD". * There should be some way of preventing a line break in the middle of "Athlon^TM", but I couldn't find an entity for it (I doubt if is right). * The "search" field looks like it was intended to be in the button bar, but is not, and the "Search" field label is half white-on-white. * I think "Get FreeBSD Now" sounds cheesy. Drop the "Now". * The two uses of "compatible" should have preceding hyphens, or just omit the words which are not really needed. * That intro para is tough to read. Move the parenthetical phrases into a second sentence, or just omit. * I wonder if "It is derived from" has a problematical tense, since it * sounds like it's still being derived. But "It was derived from" * sounds like it's a finished work. Better: "It is a derivative of". Window shot: http://people.freebsd.org/~garys/bot.jpg * Text goes outside grey box, not that it matters much. * The "More" links are not so much "more" as "all". I'd just make the four column headers/labels be those links or at least put them just under the headers as "news", "events", etc, links, where they are easier to notice and find. * The "Submit Bug" link is indented in a way that makes it look like a continuation of the "More" link just above it (one often sees two links this way that have the same target). It seems out of place anyway and is a duplicate of one of the shortcuts above, so I'd just delete it from the Security column.
